    Looking for some Fox help - non USA location

    Hi guys, I'm actually a long time member as I'm a HUGE Mustang fan, although I admit to currently owning a 4th Gen Camaro. I'm also in the UK, so cars like these are very rare and unique. Last weekend I picked up an 86' T-Bird. Ok not a Mustang, but I'm lead to believe they use a stretched...

    Novi-1200 blower abilities

    I test drove a 2007 Mustang GT with a Paxtonn Novi blower, the trader said it had "420hp" so assume its running the Novi 1200. Afraid I don't know much more than that. The car was a manual tranny with some bolt ons (exhaust). It didn't feel as quick as I thought it would. How much more...

    SLP Loud Mouth

    Ok, been looking at exhausts and I want to check something. All of the exhausts for the Mustang seem to be listed as axleback as opposed to catback. Presumably this means these only fit from the rear axle backwards. Does this mean you remain with a section of stock exhaust between the mid...

    Shorty headers - but a different question

    Ok here's a question for ya all. How affective are shorty headers on blown applications? I am not familiar with the design or flow rates of the stock headers on a s197 GT. Does anyone know or have dyno proof of shorty headers producing HP on supercharged setups? The reason I ask is...

    Anyone know the width of the option 18" polished Bullet alloys available with the CS package or optional on GT's? Would they be ok to run 275 or 285 width tyres? :nice: :nice:

    H pipes

    Couple of Q's 1. Where can you get Pypes H pipes from? I can't see them on their website: http://www.pypesexhaust.com/sys-mustang2.html 2. Who makes catted H pipes for the GT? Sadly in the UK I would not get away without running CATS. Cheers. :nice:

    So which seems to be the preferred blower - Whipple or Kenne Bell?

    I'm interested in both of these kits and was just wanting to see what the general consensus was on the best or most popular out of the two. I'm reasonably well aware of the technology behind them and have already ruled out any form of turbocharger, centrifugal supercharger or roots based...

    Camaro vs New GT vs Terminator vs New Wrangler

    What would you do? Ok here’s a dilemma I’ve been pondering for several months. Basically I’m itching to spend some money on a new vehicle or setup but don’t know what to do. Currently I have a 2000 Ls1 Camaro z/28 auto. Pretty stock just running a few bolts ons (exhaust and handling...

    How much boost can a stock 5.0 handle?

    How well would a 89-92 5.0 handle 9psi of boost (supercharger) on 91 octane fuel?? This would be a stock engine with only a catback.

    Right'o, if you where planning on building up a 5.0 (probably an 85-90 model) with a manual gearbox. The aim is circa 500bhp (thats at the engine) with brakes and handling to suit. Although engine and straight line speed would take preferance. What would you do and in what order. Lets say...

    Ram Air - Myth or Truth?

    Marketers just can't resist it. Ram air! The words themselves summon up images of rushing wild beasts, or of secret military aircraft operating on futuristic principles. Unfortunately, on most perofrmance cars, ram-air is as functional as tail fins were on cars of the ’60s. What is it? Ram...

    0-100-0 results are in. - The Mustang can hold its head up high.

    Every year Autocar magazine run a 0-100-0 competition for production cars and also some modified cars too. In the past a 400bhp 5.0 Mustang has participated alongside a 450bhp Caterham a-like, Group B rally X racers with 700+bhp and even a 1000bhp Nissan Skyline. None of these actually hold the...

    How does the new Mustang compare?

    You always get the Mustang vs Fbody debate, but I'm not really interested in that. Although to some this is not a direct comparison, but if you're looking at spending 20-30k on a car how do you think the new GT compares to the likes of: -1997/8 Dodge Viper GTS -2000 Corvette C5 Coupe...

    Why can stock Ls1's beat the GT - a small insight for noobs to performance cars

    You may have seen this before, but it I'm really posting it for the benefit of people who haven't and to add a little explanation of some of the current compition for the 05 GT out on the street. This is not a flame of the GT, it is a very fine car and looks fantastic, just a reality check...

    Would you like a more powerful GT? Would you sacrfice the V8 engine for it?

    With lots of talk that Ford didn't offer enough power with the new GT, here's an option that could well have been a reality (similar options where once considered in the early 1990's). Would you rather have a: 1. 300bhp/320lb ft 4.6 V8 as per the current lineup or 2. 2.0 litre 16v...

    WOW this is fast!

    Been looking at the New TVR Sagaris and the new 500bhp BMW M5 The TVR will do 0-150mph in 20.0 seconds The M5 will do 0-150mph in 21.5 seconds I thought they sounded pretty close, but then I thought HANGON, 1.5 seconds @ 150mph must be a fair old distance so I tried to work it out. I hope...
